Pelech (Achilles) is expected to be ready when the league begins Phase 2 small group training sessions, Brian Compton of NHL.com reports.

When Pelech was ruled out for the season, it was back in January after he suffered his Achilles injury Jan 2 versus the Devils. However, with the league going on hiatus and the postseason being pushed back, it appears the blueliner could be ready to play. In 38 appearances prior to getting hurt, the 25-year-old notched nine points, 81 hits and 83 blocks. Given his limited offensive upside, Pelech won't offer much in terms of value for DFS contests and playoff pools.
